The Funk Family 2011 {Christmas 2011}

The day after Christmas, my family all headed down to our neck of the woods for an updated family photo and Stromboli. First, we braved the cold and went to a park close to our house for a photo. Our last Funk family photo was taken before Sara and Sutton had joined our family, so we needed an updated one. We used the ol' self-timer, and Sutton did amazingly...we got these in about 5 minutes!

The one above is my favorite. Sara and my brother Michael, my dad Bruce and mom Nancy, me Adam and Sutton.

Then we went back to our house to make Stromboli/calzones using a method my mom found on Pinterest. I'm very blessed to come from a household with two amazing cooks. My dad even worked as a chef at a restaurant either before I was born or when I was very little. So I never lacked good food growing up! Unfortunately, that gene didn't really pass on to me.

We loaded it with all the favorite toppings, then mom cut the sides into strips so they could be braided over the top to close it.

It was a family affair. Everyone helped. Fun memories in the making!

Crazies.

My family is all strange. :) Me excluded. :)

They came out golden brown and delicious. YUM.

Michael and Sara headed back to Colorado the next day to move into their very first house! They're officially homeowners. So excited for them and can't wait to see it!

That's the last Christmas 2011 post. Thanks for sticking with me. :)
